Layer rendering modifies the properties of the vector to change the way it displays and interacts with the layer below and the features within the vector. Layer rendering is a part of vector style properties for all style types and works in the same way, regardless of the selected style type. In this section, we will discuss the parameters that are available for change in the Layer rendering section of vector style properties.
When a vector is first loaded, the Layer rendering parameters are set to their default values, as shown in the following screenshot:
The Layer rendering section has three parameters, which are as follows:
Layer transparency: This contains the percentage of transparency for the layer. The higher the transparency value, the more the layers below will be visible through this layer.
